On April 5th, 2011 an RCMP officer and two social workers entered a home to apprehend two children. Another mother was there (a room mate to the first mother), as an after thought the workers took her baby as well. No complaint, no investigation, just took her away.
6 days later the baby died of child abuse. Days before that the mother and grandmother showed concerns about her well being. They were informed that a doctor`s appointment would be made on the Monday after if there was still a problem.
The baby died on Monday. An inquest has been made, answers are not forthcoming. The mother was informed of her daughters death hours after the fact. This mother now lives with the fact that her daughter was abused, suffered and most likely died of dehydration. This grandmother who would have been a perfect placement for this baby will never see her granddaughter again.
This baby was not placed with family, this baby was thrown to a foster home. This foster home will not be charged or investigated. CAS will not be accountable or held responsible.
This will be another child death forgotten......or not.
The mother and grandmother of this baby are fighting and fighting hard. They want the publication ban lifted so they may speak freely of this death. They want answers, they are rallying and informing the public of this injustice.
